Hello! Can you share more of your old paintings? I only started following you recently and I’m enamored with how surreal they are, your texture work is amazing
Yes I can! And thank you so much for your ask, for your support, and for your interest!!! At that time my investment in pieces was spread a little all over the place. I was trying to make up vastly different designs, finding methods rather than getting something done.
Wow, tbh my colour picks used to be so sad and muddy! My really scratchy method of painting mainly arose from this 2023 fanart I did of Prince Pola (very niche) from the currently on-going Zatch Bell 2 manga. I used to insist on having my backdrop be one colour before I then went in raw with a thin airbrush brush. The process was so tedious but also very relaxing at the time. But currently, I am too stressed for it. I would lose hair at an even greater rate if I tried painting like this again. I only have this old screenshot, think I've lost the file.
Going even further back, here's paints from 2022 I found! A bit embarrassing but why not. Traditional art is no longer my main mode of drawing, and that began when I in-painted photos of my sketches. I think younger me was trying to make characters with transgressive bodily imperfections, but imo it can't be really be transgressive when the heads of said characters remain neotenous as fuck! [slaps younger self]
I hope I can one day polish my non-fandom stuff enough. In the meantime, there are some drawing crops that you might like that I have attached in this post, as well as some wips in this project tag.
I hope this is what you were looking for!! Once again, thanks for the ask!
